Eight public safety professionals were recognized by Gov. Brian P. Kemp at the Governor’s Public Safety Awards (GPSA) ceremony held on December 6, 2019 at the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in Forsyth. Officer Matt Cooper of the Covington Police Department, and National EMS Chief Operating Officer, Benny Atkins, of Conyers, were among these eight award recipients. The GPSA program recognizes public safety officers who go above and beyond the call of duty to protect citizens and make significant contributions to the public safety profession at large.
